• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  The final week of the season saw a RF trying to salvage a lost season, a proud RF who mostly DH'd this year, and one of the biggest surprises of the season top the performance list for the week. These players' performances certainly did not make it any easier to determine how next year's draft should look: Gold Travis Buck (Oakland Athletics) - Buck had a very disappointing 2008 season after showing such promise in 2007, but he at least ended the season on a high note. Buck hit .429 while... Posted Sep 28 2008, 11:55 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Travis Buck, MLB Top RF Performances, Vladimir Guerrero, shin-soo choo

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  It was a fairly quiet week for right fielders. Fairly. One player went wild in the RBI department, while other RFs simply did what their teams expected them to do. Gold Shin-Soo Choo (Cleveland Indians) - Choo has made things intriguing for Cleveland next year. He may merit serious consideration as their Opening Day starting right fielder after a strong performance in the second half of this year. Choo continued to hit well last week, hitting .429 with three HR and 10 RBI, while scoring five runs...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  The NL East dominates this week, as their third basemen dominate the discussion. Whether hitting for average power, or stealing an occasional base, the NL East third basemen came through in these important times. Your top three: Gold Denard Span (Minnesota Twins) : If only Span had started the season with the Twins, he would be a legitimate Rookie of the Year candidate. After all, he is hitting over .300 while slugging over .450 and having stolen the equivalent of 35 bases in a 162-game season. Span...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  Mind-boggling. That is one of the many adjectives that can be used to describe the production of the top three RFs this week. The top RFs brought their A-game as they hit for incredible AVGs, hit for power, and drove in plenty of runs. Who, you ask, were these top stars? Glad you asked: Gold Andre Ethier (Los Angeles Dodgers) : Something has really clicked for Ethier over the last few weeks. Oh, yes, perhaps it is that Manny Ramirez guy who came over during the summer and now hits behind him. Anyway...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  It was a big week for part-time players, many of whom made the most of their increased playing time for one reason or another. Limited at-bats did not translate to limited numbers, as these part-timers showed with big-time numbers: Gold Jayson Werth (Philadelphia Phillies) : It can be frustrating trying to decide whether to put Werth in your fantasy lineup, since his playing time can be sporadic, but an injury to Geoff Jenkins opened the door for Werth to play more often. He certainly made the most... Posted Aug 31 2008, 11:59 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: MLB Top RF Performances, Jayson Werth, Elijah Dukes, shin-soo choo

  This week, we have three RF who are not accustomed to making this list. That's what medals are all about, right, acknowledging those who have performed well all year, but have not necessarily gotten the spotlight? No? Well, this week, that's the storyline: Gold Denard Span (Minnesota Twins) : Span continues to perform as one of the most impressive rookies in baseball. Span hit .321 with seven RBI, four R, and two SB, to go along with a homer. Span may not put up fantastic fantasy numbers...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  It was nearly impossible to get RFs out this week, as a number of RFs hit well over .350. The top three managed to make the most of their hits, scoring plenty of runs and driving in their fair share as well: Gold Andre Ethier (Los Angeles Dodgers) : Ever since the Manny Ramirez trade, the young Dodgers outfielders have definitely stepped up their game, and this week, Ethier made a bold statement. Ethier hit .391 in 23 ABs, smacking four HR, driving in seven runs, and scoring eight times. Ethier has...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  Just like the Olympics, you have your medal winners who were favored from the get-go, and you have your underdogs who got hot at the right time. This week's right fielders embodied the Olympic spirit, with the gold medal winner coming out of nowhere, the silver going to an old standby, and the bronze winner finally performing to expectations again: Gold Marlon Byrd (Texas Rangers) : Byrd, normally a CF, got plenty of chances to start in RF when the Rangers decided to shift him there after Milton...

  Boom! That is the sound you probably heard as soon as a RF swung the bat, because they could not miss the ball when swinging this week, and they made hard, booming contact. Right Fielders are on a roll, as the Top Three show: Gold Bobby Abreu (New York Yankees) : I believe it is safe to announce officially that Abreu is a great second-half player. Last year, he got off to a middling start, but turned it on after the All-Star break. This year, same deal. Abreu hit .444 last week with four HR and nine...

  It was virtually impossible for opposing pitchers to get the Top Three RFs out this week. Combining for a .485 AVG, these top RFs also hit for a decent amount of power (six HR combined) and drove in plenty of runs (23, all told). What more could you ask from these fantasy stars? Gold Jermaine Dye (Chicago White Sox) : Snubbed for the All-Star team by the players and fans, who chose Evan Longoria over him in the final balloting, Dye has taken any anger he might have had out on opposing pitchers. Dye... Posted Jul 27 2008, 11:59 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: Magglio Ordonez, MLB Top RF Performances, Jermaine Dye, Brad Hawpe

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  This week's list is all about potential. The top three RFs this week have had high expectations for a considerable amount of time, one of whom has been a long-time fantasy stud, one who was predicted for great things last year, and one who was considered a potential fantasy superstar for many years. For a week at least, and a short one at that, they all fulfilled their potential: Gold Jeremy Hermida (Florida Marlins) : Hermida has often driven his owners crazy with what some perceive as untapped...

  Before the season, if you saw the players who comprise this week's Top Three, you likely would have reacted with a big, "Huh?" The gold-medal winner is truly a surprise as a mid-season callup, but the other two have been solid producers all year. On to the list: Gold Matt Joyce (Detroit Tigers) : Before the season, Joyce probably figured he had little to no chance of receiving significant playing time with the big club, but injuries and ineffectiveness have afforded him an opportunity...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  As the Olympics fast approach, this week sees three newcomers to the medal stand, including one name we expected to see on this list far more often. One might even call this week's winners the list of unfulfilled potential, as each attempts to prove that they can perform at these levels more often than not: Gold Andre Ethier (Los Angeles Dodgers) : Ethier has actually performed pretty well, even though his playing time has been inconsistent at times. Leading the Dodgers in home runs (which isn't...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  Fantasy stars fall off the map sometimes, and eventually fall out of favor. That has been true of the top three this week at one point or another, either this season or last season. You can never count a good player out, however, and this week's top three embody that principle. Certainly, anyone who gave up on these three rued the past week: Gold Bobby Abreu (New York Yankees) : Despite declining numbers, Abreu has still gotten high-round treatment the last couple of years because of his all...

• MLB Top Weekly Performances - Right Fielders

  A huge week for RFs, who decided that home runs are sexier than the stolen base. Not only were pitchers unable to get them out, but they had to crane their necks to see how far away the 3B hit the ball, as many of them hit the ball hard all week. Here are the best of those best: Gold Jermaine Dye (Chicago White Sox) : Dye led the Chicago attack over the weekend, finishing the week with a .417 AVG, five HR, an incredible 13 RBI, and seven runs scored. After a relatively disastrous 2007 season, Dye... Posted Jun 22 2008, 08:59 PM by paChiefsFan with | with no comments Filed under: MLB Top RF Performances, J.D. Drew, Jermaine Dye, Vladimir Guerrero
